Growing up in the shadow of her mother, the infamous Anne Boleyn, young Princess Elizabeth has learnt to be on the watch for the political games played out around her.

She sets up a home with Henry's last wife, Katherine Parr, who now has a new husband, Tom Seymour. Tom, however, is playing a risky game.

The first five stories in this collection are stories from Ireland, exploring the dark history of the country and the dogged optimism of its people. The following four tales are of the uncanny - striking studies of witchcraft and black magic, evoking a strange haunting atmosphere illustrating the power of evil and its effect on the imagination.

The last story 'Where beauty lies' is an eighteenth century frolic over a nobleman's choice of bride
